mRNA cancer vaccines alone or with other drugs for solid tumors
This study tests two experimental mRNA vaccines (mRNA-4106 and mRNA-4200) given either alone or together with other cancer treatments. The goal is to see if they are safe and work against advanced or metastatic solid tumors like melanoma, lung, liver, and colon cancer. Participation requires that you have tried or refused all standard treatments.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06887348Recruiting
Long-term safety study for prior RP1, RP2, or RP3 patients
This study checks the long-term safety of patients who have already received RP1, RP2, or RP3 treatment in a previous study. It helps doctors understand any side effects that may appear over time.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05310643RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab and ipilimumab for bowel cancer resistant to anti-PD1
This Phase 2 study tests two immunotherapy medicines (nivolumab and ipilimumab) in people with metastatic colorectal cancer that has not responded to anti-PD1 treatment. It focuses on tumors with mismatch repair problems (dMMR) and/or high microsatellite instability (MSI).
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT06860971RecruitingPhase 3
AL2846 capsule vs placebo for advanced thyroid cancer
This study tests a new oral capsule (AL2846) against a placebo in people with advanced thyroid cancer that no longer responds to radioactive iodine. The goal is to see if AL2846 can slow or stop cancer growth.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT06862219RecruitingPhase 4
Enfortumab Vedotin safety study for advanced urothelial cancer

Liver-only metastatic colon cancer trial using targeted chemo
This Phase 3 trial tests different ways to deliver chemotherapy for colon cancer that has spread only to the liver (with limited possible tiny lung spots). It looks at whether the treatment plan improves outcomes compared with another chemotherapy approach, using oxaliplatin and LV5FU2 (with or without irinotecan) plus an added targeted medicine.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06840288Recruiting
Lung tumor ablation registry study
This study tracks patients with small lung tumors that are treated with a robotic bronchoscope to destroy the tumor using heat. It aims to learn how well this procedure works over time.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06841172RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation vs treatment switch for limited liver cancer growth
This trial tests whether giving radiation to a few growing cancer spots while continuing your current treatment works better than switching to a new treatment right away. It's for people whose advanced liver cancer has only barely started to progress on their first therapy.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06835972RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Abemaciclib and cabozantinib for advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two oral drugs (abemaciclib and cabozantinib) for people with advanced kidney cancer (clear cell type) who have already tried at least two other treatments, including an immunotherapy and a targeted therapy, but their cancer kept growing. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow the cancer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06828380RecruitingPhase 2

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung cancer (locally advanced or metastatic)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 5,800 recruiting lung cancer (locally advanced or metastatic) studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a lung cancer (locally advanced or metastatic) trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a lung cancer (locally advanced or metastatic) trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
